Amazing safari w/ Easy Travel!
We took a 7 day safari a few weeks ago - Easy Travel was a fantastic company to work with from start to finish. There are so many tour companies to choose from and we never regretted going with Easy Travel. Everyone at the office was extremely friendly and helpful. The safari itself was an unforgettable experience. Emmilian was our guide and was so knowledgeable and friendly. He knew all of the parks like the back of his hand, and we knew we were in good hands the entire time. Could not recommend this trip and this company more!

Very good experience
We were three people on safari for 4/5 days between the Ngorongoro and Serengeti las t August. I must say we had an enjoyable experience. Because we were late with payment, we lost our reservation and Easytravel secured other and better accommodation while keeping the same price. After I received several quotes from other companies and being an experienced safari goer, I can say that it is one of the company with the best ratio price/quality.
Our driver guide went out of his depth to spend as less time as possible on the roads between parks at our demand since were only there for limited time. We saw all major safari animals including the big five and a leopard hunting in the Serengeti in only 2 days and a half.
I would definitely recommend Easytravel to other people.

Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Zanzibar!
I decided to take a 3 1/2 week trip around Africa in August 2015. Being that it was my first time in Africa and I was traveling alone as a female I had some normal apprehension. I decided to add Tanzania to my journey and used Easy Travel to help plan my Safari and beach portion of my trip. Easy Travel came recommended to me through a friend who raved about them. When I arrived in Tanzania I was greeted by Swai a very experienced guide who grew up in Tanzania. I was also given a brand new 4X4 Jeep which was huge, secure and most importantly safe. Since I was traveling alone Easy Travel took it upon themselves to make sure I had the best trip and best stay possible. They even touched base with me several times throughout my trip to make sure I was satisfied and in good hands. I saw the big 5 before I headed to Zanzibar and enjoyed a few days of relaxing on the beach in one of the most beautiful places in the world. I could not rave more about this company. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a Safari trip. Easy Travel provided the best customer service, reliability and experience possible. It exceeded all my expectations.
Superb Company
We used Caudence to plan a three week trip to Tanzania and Zanzibar.
We emailed back and forth over the course of a three month planning period and she always responded quickly and informatively. We are a family of Four so when you are spending this much money I needed a high confidence level that we would get our money's worth and Easy Travel did not disappoint. Emilian our guide was knowledgeable
and friendly and we were sad when we had to leave him. I bid our trip to four or five companies and Easy travel was extremely competitive and provided superb value for money. Highly recommended.

The perfect safari experience thanks to Easy Travel!!
I'm not normally one to write reviews but the level of service Easy Travel provided on our recent trip is something that needs to praised.
We had been planning our safari holiday for a number of years and eventually decided to go for it. We started by getting quotes from UK operators but were being provided quotes way out of our price range so we decided to try some local operators. With a little bit of help from previous Trip Advisor reviews we sent off for quotes from a couple of highly rated operators. The prices from local operators in Tanzania blew the UK quotes out of the water. We decided to go with Easy Travel and it was the best decision we ever made.
From the initial point of contact Caudence helped us build up our custom built itinerary in a friendly but professional manor. We exchanged numerous emails where Caudence would provide various quotes on the many different lodges and camps in the various different parks of Tanzania. Nothing was ever too much and every e-mail was dealt with quickly. Finally we settled on an 8 day itinerary including Lake Manyara, Central Serengeti, Northern Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire completely custom built to include the lodges/camps we wanted.
Online payment by credit card was simple and we always received invoices and payment confirmations.
We can't praise Caudence enough for help organising our trip, from the initial contact right to the end of the trip everything ran so smoothly.
However, let's face it, it's the actual trip that really counts.
But yet again Easy Travel delivered a trip that was way beyond our wildest dreams and surpassed all our expectations!!
As promised we were collected from the airport and taken to our first night accommodation to get some much needed rest from the long flight and the following morning we were met by our guide for the week to set off on our safari.
Richard, our guide, was amazing. He made the trip the incredible experience it was. He was extremely knowledgeable (not quite sure how he remember the names of all those birds) but most of all his friendly approach made us feel completely at ease and able to ask any question about the animals, birds and Tanzanian life!! We learnt so much from Richard.
As we had booked the private safari, we had the luxury of being able to dictate how long we stayed and watched certain animals without ever feeling rushed.
Richard seemed to have a knack of finding the things we wanted to see and within only 4 days we'd ticked off the Big 5 (even finding a mother and baby Rhino in the trees in Northern Serengeti). By the end of the week we'd experienced so many amazing things but the highlights had to be the thousands of wildebeest crossing the River Mara and the fascinating sight of watching a pride of lions feasting on a Eland close to our camp. One thing Richard taught us is patience is the key, so while other jeeps moved on, we waited and were left alone to see the 2 lions initially eating to be joined by 7 others from the pride. Lesson learnt!!
Every day we saw new amazing things and having an incredible guide is the key.
The only bad thing I have to say about the experience is that it had to end!! The whole experience from start to finish was something we will never ever forget and we have to thank Richard, Caudence and the Easy Travel team for that.
I've read many other Easy Travel reviews with similar glowing review of the guides and staff and that can't be a co-incidence so if you're looking to book a safari in Tanzania there is only one option as far as we are concerned.
We will be back. Thanks again!!

Experience of a lifetime
Traveling with Easy Travel is such a breeze! My sisters and I went on a safari trip to Serengeti and ngorongoro just last week and we had the most fun. The trip was filled with adventure, excitement and expectations that Easy Travel did not fail to meet. From our arrival to our driver to our game drives and our departure.
Our driver for the trip was sent to receive us at the airport, and that gave us good time to get acquainted to each other before we actually went on the safari. Adrian is very well versed and knowledgeable about everything around Arusha and the game parks. We definitely did learn quite a bit from him.
Before we left for our safari, Musaddiq, GM for Easy Travel gave us a very detailed briefing of what we should expect, what we should be ready for, how we should dress, what we should take and etc. He was very particular that we should know every possible thing we can!
Then comes the actual safari! We were put up at their Serengeti Tortilis Camp and that was an experience of a lifetime! They have semi-luxury tents in the heart of central Serengeti with all of the basic amenities you would get in a hotel. THAT, went over and beyond our expectations. At nights, you could hear different animals around the area- from hyenas and Buffaloes to lions and elephants. It was very exciting for us to experience that and we can never forget it.
At ngorongoro we stayed at the rim of the crater, which was also again very beautiful and peaceful.
Adrian would always update us at the end of every day as to what the plan was for the next day. I must say, he is very efficient, keeps his car spotless and makes sure his guests are always comfortable and having the best of times. He also made sure we saw all the animals we wanted to see.
I would definitely recommend Easy Travel to anyone going on safari. It is your one stop for all your needs, and they go the extra mile to keep all their customers happy. Thank you for such a valuable experience and keep doing the amazing work Easy Travel. I am sure to travel with you again!
Fantastic!
Easy travel facilitated our holiday in Tanzania that we booked at Matoke tours (the Netherlands). Gilbert Mariki was our guide/driver, and thanks to him we had a fantastic experience. Gilbert has extensive knowledge regarding animals/nature and culture. He was great company and took excellent care of us.

An unforgettable experience beyond all expectations thanks to our guide Adreano
The trip was very well organised. From the day of arrival until our departure we were pampered. I have been travelling with my family and two children aged 9 and 11. Adreano did do everything to make sure we saw all that there is to be seen. He is a very good and safe driver and very knowledgeable on all the species. If I would have the money I would go again tomorrow.
